Living and working in peace and contentment through the past and the present

Since the two met each other, Su Qinlian went to Yu's house whenever he had free time. Every time he came, Yu Chi would take him to visit Yu's house. Elegant and exquisite, Su Qinlian lingers every time he looks at it, his good mood affects Yu Chi, because of him, the scenery that has long been tired of seeing becomes vivid in Yu Chi's eyes.

Time flies, and it is the end of the year.At this time, the two had known each other for more than two months, and they were already familiar with each other.As the year approached, Su Qinlian went to Yu's house less and less often, even a few days ago, he never appeared.Because of this, Yu Chi was uneasy reading and looking out the window every time, wanting to see Su Qinlian...

During the New Year, it was lively and lively, but Yu Chi felt deserted.On the second day of the Lunar New Year, all the separated people returned to the main house to worship their ancestors, and Yu Chi lived alone in a corner, not wanting to see those separated people.He and Su Qinlian hadn't seen each other for half a month. Seeing the children from the separated family playing together lively, the more he missed Su Qinlian, the more he thought about it, the more he wanted to see her...

Unable to stop the longing in his heart, Yu Chi asked the housekeeper to prepare some gifts, and took the gifts to find Su Qinlian.There is only one wall between Su Qinlian's house and Yu's house, but it seems to be separated by thousands of mountains and rivers. It took Yu Chi nearly 10 minutes to walk downstairs to Su Qinlian's house. He remembered that Su Qinlian lived on the sixth floor , When he rang the doorbell, he felt uneasy for the first time in his heart.

The door was quickly opened, and when Su Qinlian saw Yu Chi, her eyes could not hide her surprise.His eyes seemed to be able to speak, and Yu Chi could see his surprise and joy from it. Half a month of missing made Yu Chi emotional, and he stood at the door and hugged Su Qinlian tightly. Su Qinlian was surprised, but still clumsy He patted Yu Chi on the back and asked, "What's wrong?"

"miss you."

"I want to too..." Su Qinlian murmured softly, her face flushed.At this time, there was a slight coughing sound in the room, Su Qinlian pushed Yu Chi away, her face was full of worry, "Xiao Chi, come in first, I'll go see my mother first."

"What's wrong with Auntie?" Yu Chi held Su Qinlian's hand and asked with a frown.He heard from the coughing that the patient was seriously ill.

"Mom was ill a few years ago and has never recovered." Su Qinlian lowered her eyebrows, her overly long eyelashes trembling, revealing endless worries.Yu Chi watched, his heart tightened, he grabbed Su Qinlian's hand and walked in looking for the sound of coughing, "Why didn't you tell me that Auntie is sick? The illness can't be delayed."

"I..." Su Qinlian followed behind Yu Chi step by step, but didn't know how to answer.He knew that everyone in the Yu family was a doctor, but he didn't want the friendship between him and Yu Chi to be mixed with other elements. He and Yu Chi were friends only because of Yu Chi, not because of Yu Chi's background...

Yu Chi didn't know what was going on in Su Qinlian's heart. He came to the room of Su Qinlian's mother, Lanqin. As soon as he entered, the smell of western medicine came to his nostrils. He frowned, and walked to the bedside to help Lanqin feel her pulse. .After that, his eyebrows never furrowed.

Lan Qin stood up weakly, looked at Yu Chi who was frowning with a smile, touched Su Qinlian's head lovingly, and said, "Are you Xiaolian's classmate?"

"..." Yu Chi didn't know how to answer. He and Su Qinlian were not classmates, but they were friends... He didn't know why he felt repulsive in his heart.

"No, he's my...friend." Seeing that Yu Chi didn't answer, Su Qinlian murmured out the word friend. He didn't know if Yu Chi regarded him as a friend.

When Lan Qin heard what her son said, a beautiful smile appeared on her pale face. She knew her son's character, he was a loner, and he didn't have any friends. This was the first time she heard the word "friend" from her son.

"It's a friend, cough...friend...cough..." Lan Qin coughed, Su Qinlian patted Lan Qin's back nervously, Lan Qin stopped coughing, and held Yu Chi's hand, "Son, May I have your name?"

"Yuchi."

"Is it the young master of the Yu family?" Lan Qin sighed inwardly, fearing that she couldn't hide her illness.

After Su Qinlian settled Lan Qin, she dragged Yu Chi to the living room.Even though it was the New Year, the Su family didn't feel festive at all.Yu Chi felt bad, Lan Qin's disease, if he did not make a mistake, it should be lung cancer.He didn't know whether he should tell Su Qinlian, but Su Qinlian was the only one in the Su family, if he didn't tell Su Qinlian, who else could he tell?After hesitating, Yu Chi still told Su Qinlian about his condition.

"Qinlian, Auntie's illness... I'm afraid it's lung cancer, you have to be prepared."

"Ah?" Su Qinlian was stunned, as if not sure if what he heard was true, "What did you say?"

"Auntie's illness is probably lung cancer."

"Lung cancer? How long is it?"

Yu Chi prepared a lot of comforting words, and when Su Qinlian said these words, he swallowed them in his throat. He looked at Su Qinlian who was not emotionally fluctuating in surprise, and a strange feeling rose from the bottom of his heart.Isn't this young man who captured all his thoughts too indifferent?

Su Qinlian didn't seem to notice his surprised gaze. He stood up and walked to a painting in the living room. It was a lotus leaf painting full of spring scenery in the pond. Not let go, delicate but beautiful.Su Qinlian touched a lotus leaf, and the water droplets on the lotus leaf seemed to be able to drip down, which was extremely vivid.

Su Qinlian said, "My dad loved painting lotus flowers the most, but he always liked to paint large lotus leaves. He rarely painted lotus flowers. He said that things you like don't have to be talked about every day. Keep it in your heart. Moreover, beautiful things are easily broken, and they will disappear if you don’t pay attention to them.”

The water droplets on the lotus leaf dripped and hit the ground to create a small puddle of water. Yu Chi's heart suddenly tightened, and the pain was unbearable. He walked behind Su Qinlian and hugged Su Qinlian tightly. With a choked shoulder, she said, "Qinlian, cry if you want, don't pretend to be strong in front of me."

Su Qinlian smiled and raised her head, "I didn't cry."

"Well, I know." Yu Chi buried his head in Su Qinlian's neck and said sullenly.

Su Qinlian's tears still flowed down her cheeks, and dripped onto Yu Chi's arm along her thin chin, which made Yu Chi's whole arm feel hot.Yu Chi hugged Su Qinlian tightly, comforting her silently.

After a long time, so long that Su Qinlian could no longer shed a tear, Su Qinlian turned around and hugged Yu Chi tightly, his voice was hoarse and weak, "Xiao Chi, mother is leaving, I Only you are left."

I only have you left... These words, like a curse, tied Yu Chi's heart tightly.From that day on, Yu Chi went to Su's house every day, and when he came back, he devoted himself to studying lung cancer. He also specially dragged his grandfather to Su's house to treat Lan Qin's illness.However, the illness came like a mountain, and Lan Qin's illness had reached a very serious level. It was difficult to cure her with medicine, and at most she had to take medicine to maintain her life.

But the Yu family is a family of traditional Chinese medicine. No matter how stubborn the disease is, even cancer, it can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine to prolong the time. If Yu Zhezhi gives a time, Lanqin can still live for another year.One year is enough.It was enough for Lan Qin and Su Qinlian to have no regrets.

A year later, Lan Qinshang, before he died, told Su Qinlian the great secret.Yu Chi has been by Su Qinlian's side for a year, and the day Lan Qin left was the same.

Lan Qin, who had returned to the light, looked like a peach and plum. She took out a dried maple leaf specimen from a brocade box next to the bed. Lung cancer had damaged her voice. Putting the maple leaf specimen in Su Qinlian's hand, she said with a smile, "Xiao Lian, I'm sorry, my mother can only accompany you here, and you must live well in the future. All these years, my mother has been hiding it from you, and you are not my mother's. Dear son. This maple leaf is your belonging. Your father and I originally planned to tell you when you were an adult, but... we can't wait for that time. Don't blame your biological parents, they have their own difficulties... "

"Mom..." Su Qinlian whispered, "Mom, I only recognize you."

"Silly boy, what are you talking about?" Lan Qin lovingly stroked Su Qinlian's head, "I'm not here anymore, you can go find them..."

"Xiao Chi." Lan Qin waved to Yu Chi, Yu Chi sat on the other side of her with red eyes, Lan Qin held Yu Chi's hand, "Xiao Chi, help Auntie take good care of Xiao Lian after Auntie is gone."

"I will."

Seemingly having explained what should be explained, Lan Qin closed her eyes and smiled, and never woke up again.

Lan Qin's funeral was held very simply. After the funeral, Su Qinlian fell into a low ebb in her life.Yu Chi was worried, and forced Su Qinlian to live in his house.

It was spring, and there was a breath of vitality everywhere, and the flowers in Yu's family yard were blooming.But in this season full of spring colors, Su Qinlian has lost her vitality. Her eyes, which were originally shining like stars, have long since dimmed, and even her black and soft hair is slightly withered and yellow.Yu Chi looked at Su Qinlian who was getting thinner and thinner day by day, and felt depressed.

Su Qinlian is the only friend that Yu Chi cares about. The kind of innate kindness makes him unable to bear to see Su Qinlian tormenting himself like this.But after all, he is only a 15-year-old boy, and he doesn't know how to comfort others. He has never experienced life and death events, but Su Qinlian has experienced them twice in succession. For the first time, he felt that his experience was too pale. I can't find a word of comfort.

I can't tell, I can only do it. Yu Chi took all Su Qinlian's painting utensils to the small garden and set them up. He pulled Su Qinlian to the easel and asked Su Qinlian to paint. He said to Su Qinlian, "Don't be in a daze every day, just draw and do something and you'll be fine."

Su Qinlian pursed her lips and looked at Yu Chi, her eyes were full of fragility. He took the paintbrush in Yu Chi's hand and sat in front of the easel but didn't know how to write it. His painting method was taught by his father and mother. His, and now, both of them are gone, he suddenly forgot how to pick up a pen...

Su Qinlian sat in front of the easel in a daze, only his body exuded the depression of autumn in the spring scenery of the garden.The rose in full bloom in front of him seemed to sense his emotions, and quietly retracted its beautiful figure, leaning softly against the corner of the wall. When the breeze blows, it gently brushes over Su Qinlian's fair face...

seems to be comforting...

Leaning against Yuchi beside the gazebo, the medical books in her hand had already been put down. When the spring breeze blew by, the yellowed paper fluttered as if it was about to turn paper into a butterfly, flying towards Su Qinlian's side and dancing.Yu Chi quietly looked at the scenery in front of him, and suddenly felt that he and Su Qinlian were separated by a thousand layers of veil, and he wanted to touch him, but he couldn't touch him.

Because, that person is inside the painting, and he is outside the painting, after all, he is one of the thousands of people who appreciate the painting...

Suddenly withdrew his outstretched hand, the book in his hand fell to the ground, the paper creaked in the wind, Yu Chi stepped over the book, walked into the painting, squatted down, and tightly held Su Qinlian's persistent brush hand, raised his head, and said, "Qinlian, you still have me..."

Su Qinlian's heart trembled suddenly, and her empty eyes gradually gathered spirits. He held Yu Chi's hand tightly, as if catching the last duckweed in his life, "Xiao Chi, you won't leave Mine, isn't it?"

"No, never."

Su Qinlian buried her head in Yu Chi's neck, weeping silently, this was the first time Lan Qin shed tears after she left.Yu Chi heaved a sigh of relief, thankfully Su Qinlian finally let out the pain that was stagnant in her heart.

The afternoon sun is abundant, and it is easy to get sleepy in spring. Su Qinlian was very sleepy after venting. The two returned to the gazebo, Yu Chi sat on the soft couch, and Su Qinlian slept lightly on Yu Chi's lap.Yu Chi held a book in his hand and looked at it carefully. The afternoon sun shone in, lining half of his face as transparent as glass. He carefully used the medical book to cover Su Qinlian from the sun, but unconsciously His hand dropped, and the medical book fell aside, but his hand fell on Su Qinlian's cheek. He lowered his head and snored softly. In this quiet afternoon, he and Su Qinlian formed a picture A painting as beautiful as a fairyland.

The housekeeper carefully took a blanket and tried to cover them, but was stopped halfway.

"Master..."

"It's okay, you go to work, I'll be fine."

Yu Qing took the blanket from the housekeeper and walked to the gazebo.He looked at the young man sleeping on Yu Chi's lap, with inexplicable emotions flashing in his eyes, he sighed faintly, and covered the young man with a blanket, Yu Qing sat beside Yu Chi, hugging Yu Chi lightly, he was gentle for Yu Chi Chi wrapped the blanket, gently lifted Yu Chi's chin, and placed a kiss on the corner of Yu Chi's lips.

This is his brother... his beloved brother...
